A high frequency penetrating radar for masonry investigation
In this paper a high-frequency large-bandwidth synthetic-aperture penetrating radar for inspecting masonry structures is described. The system operated in a non-contact manner by mechanically moving the transmitting and receiving antennas in order to realize a synthetic aperture. The radar signal was a continuous wave step frequency (CW-SF) waveform, scanning a 7 GHz bandwidth at 9.5 GHz center frequency, thus providing high resolution images of the investigated structures. Laboratory tests in order to assess the performances of the system are reported. Furthermore some preliminary results of a case study on a wall of historical interest ('Salone dei Cinquecento'- Palazzo Vecchio - Firenze) are presented.
